No, Disney bought them to fill a gap in their live action movie earnings.
I said this before and I stay with it, there is zero chance that after Spider-Man 3 there will be any trace of him in the MCU ever again
Disney has very little reason to since their animated films and superhero films are already critical darlings that make gobstopper amounts of money.
Speaking of which, this really reminds me of my earlier disappointment of the Spider-Man game going for that basic hyperrealism rather than taking after an artist like Immoen's style. Especially since they took so much from Slott's run and got him and his ghostwriter to help plot the game.
Holy shit I just remembered how hard they blew it by not giving Genndy the Popeye movie.
Peter rabbit and angry birds were successful for them too
"fuck that venom trash, I'm waiting for spiderman in december"
Full creative control over the property again, have him show up in Venom, etc
I know how people feel about Grace here, but I doubt she's making up what she was told by a Marvel representative and saying it on record. However it's very possible either the Marvel representative was wrong or she misinterpreted what they said. I don't know.
You have more faith in this movie doing well than I do lol.
I too am happy for Sony Animation. They always struck me as an ambitious team of artists and animators who had to make the most of the weak screenplays and concepts given more often than not.
Yeah, I can see this type of film having good legs. Animated movies as of late have tended to do that.
